Aluminum Foil; Positioning Racks And Bakeware - KENMORE ELITE 664.4278 Série Guide D'utilisation

Aluminum Foil

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom
finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner.
For best cooking results, do not cover entire oven rack with foil
because air must be able to move freely.

Positioning Racks and Bakeware

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain
finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven
door or bottom.
Bakeware
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow
2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Make
sure that no bakeware piece is directly over another.
Racks
Position racks before turning on the oven.
■
Do not position racks with bakeware on them.
■
Make sure racks are level.
■
To position a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the
front edge, and then lift out. Use the following illustration and
table as a guide.

position 2. If you do not have two flat racks, use a Max
Capacity Oven Rack in rack position 6. Place the cakes on the
racks as shown. Keep at least 3" (7.6 cm) of space between the
front of the racks and the front cakes.
Baking Cookies
For best results when baking cookies on two racks, use the
Convection Bake function, a flat rack in rack position 6,
and a flat rack in rack position 3.
